An unfinished Hans Holbein chalk portrait


 An unfinished Hans Holbein chalk portrait of a woman whom some art historians identify as Anne Gainsford; Lady in waiting to both Anne Boleyn and Jane Seymour. The name M. Souch in the top left corner of the portrait could indicate Mistress Souch, Anne was married to Sir George Souch (alt spelling Zouch/e). Others believe it is a portrait of Mary Zouche (Souch) another lady in waiting to Anne Boleyn.
